  1. ConceptNet - a pratical commonsense reasoning tool-kit H Liu and P Singh MIT Media Lab Speaker: Yi-Ching(Janet) Huang

  2. Introduction • ConceptNet • Freely available commonsense knowledge base • Natual-language-processing tool-kit • It supports many practical textual-reasoning tasks over real-world documents

  3. Outline • Comparison of ConceptNet, Cyc, and WordNet • History, Construction and Structure • Various contextual reasoning tasks • Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis • Conclusion

  4. Comparison

  5. CRIS/ OMCSNet Cyc OMCS ConceptNet History of ConceptNet 1984 2000 2002 2004

  6. Building ConceptNet • 3 phases • Extraction phase • Extract from OMCS corpus • English sentence -> binary-relation assertion • Normalization phase • Relaxation phase • Produce “inferred assertion” • Improve the connectivity of the network

  7. Structure of the ConceptNet knowledge base • 1.6 million assertions (1.25 million are k-lines) • twenty relation-types

  8. Practical commonsense reasoning • An integrated natural-language-processing engine • MontyLingua • Text document --> VSOO frames • Reasoning capabilities • Node-level reasoning • Document-level reasoning

  9. Node-level reasoning • Contextual neighborhoods • Spreading activation • Analogy-making • Projection

  10. Document-level reasoning • Topic-gisting • Disambiguation and classification • Novel-concept identification • Affect sensing

  11. Characteristics and quality • ConceptNet’s reasoning abilities hinge largely on the quality of its knowledge

  12. Characteristics of the KB • The histogram of nodal word-lengths 70%

  13. Characteristic of the KB • Average frequency an assertion is uttered of inferred 90% uttered

  14. Characteristics of the KB • The connectivity of nodes in ConceptNet by measuring nodal edge-density

  15. Quality of the knowledge • Two dimensions of quality of ConceptNet, rated by human judges

  20. Conclusion • ConceptNet is presently the largest freely commonsense database • Support many practical textual-reasoning tasks • Goodness • Easy to use • Simple structure of WordNet • Good for practical commonsense reasoning
